ESETT Investigator MeetingMarch 2017

Erin Fisher Kenny, BA, CRCMelanie Martin, RN, MS

Daniel M. Cohen, MD

Simulation Framework

• Run “in situ” in collaboration with ED Nurse Education Leadership Scheduled to engage each shift RN Education “credit”

• When the ED is at low volume Initiated by calling a “Mock Seizure Alert” “Vocera” call to all staff on-duty (physicians,

nurses, medics, pharmacists and others) to a specific room in the ED

Simulation Framework

• We work in real time, using the trauma clock as a marker: High fidelity mannequin Brief, real-life, varied scenarios Synergy with clinical training and SE QI

• Interactive Q&A / debriefing• Follow-up summary and thank you email

Simulation Numbers• 11 simulations (10/12/2015 – Present)• 82 attendees, including:

31 RNs

15 Researcher Team Members

12 Physicians

11 Other*

10 Pharmacists

3 Respiratory Therapists

*Includes medics, patient transportation, unit clerks, etc.

Impact

• Increases research visibility in the ED• Reviews knowledge of ESETT

inclusion/exclusion as well as best practices• Allows for questions to be answered in real time This has helped us tailor our training and processes

• Provider awareness of the ESETT study Those attending simulations are more likely to call the

research team if a seizing patient presents in the ED

Lesson Learned

• Outstanding team building • Excellent synergy• Sims feel like “geologic time” ~awkward?• Not all that time consuming• Thus far, not traction for seizure alerts…• Metrics may be useful
